Default Multimeter..
I need a decent multi meter.

I could do with one that can measure temperature as well (nothing fantastic, with an update time of a second or so).

any suggestions?

fluke is the best out there IMO.

but anything above £30 should do you well.

I use an ISO multimeter, about £90 from RS i think
